carpandean Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Go Montreal so that the Danny thread can die. :thumbsup:
Bmwolf21 Posted April 24, 2008 Author Report Posted April 24, 2008 No Forsberg, no Hasek, octopus - check. Detroit didn't waste any time answering Statsny's opening goal...1-1.
SwampD Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Biron stops the penalty shot. I have no rational reason for it but i find myself routing for Philly. I think this season damaged me more than i know. Or maybe i just want to see the city of montreal burn.
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Colorado needs to figure out how to stay out of the penalty box, or this series will be over real fast. Kostisyn (sp?) makes up for his penalty shot and cuts the Flyers lead to 2-1...
millbank Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 you are amazing :lol: Go Montreal so that the Danny thread can die. :thumbsup:
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Probably the whole Rioting thing too and booing... I hope Philly sweeps them!
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 So Theodore left the Col-Detroit game sick and left the building, and now Budaj is in the net and Tyler Wieman is dressed as the backup?
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Come on Flyers, put a fork in them and make it 4-2!!!!
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Oh my! Is it rigged or what? PHIL takes a penalty with 1:00 left! :wallbash: :wallbash:
GoatheadInCT Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 SCOOOOORES!!!!!! YOU SUCK, CRYERS!!!! VERY nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Who you rooting for BM? Habs...even though some of their fans act like d-bags during the anthem and then riot to celebrate a ho-hum accomplishment, I simply cannot bring myself to root for the orange and black. Plus I grew up watching the Habs on HNiC with my grandfather, who was a lifelong Habs fan (born and lived about 90 minutes from Montreal) so I have some good memories of Les Habs from growing up...

Flyers in 4! :nana: :nana: There will be more Danny/Marty pain before it is over! :chris:
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Jeez, glad to see the Versus' announcers are keeping their suck-fest talents in top shape...I'm surprised Emerick and Olcyzk can call the game while continually ball-washing the Wings...<_<
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Wow...Osgood robs Liles point-blank with 8 seconds to go... :wallbash:
Bmwolf21 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Damn...Detroit escapes with a 4-3 win...
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Okay.. Okay... Philly in 5! :nana:
millbank Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 oh sure sure, I have seen this before, more of your reverse Physicolgy Okay.. Okay... Philly in 5! :nana:
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 oh sure sure, I have seen this before, more of your reverse Physicolgy :D Hey I am torn! :nana: Now you just broke the mojo!
SabresFan526 Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Uh-Oh! Kovalev is heating up. A shorthanded goal and the game tying goal to send it to OT. What an exciting game, and just what you figured the Habs would do. Seriously, they remind me a lot of last year's Sabres. They are fantastic in the clutch. They've come back from 5-0 to beat the Rangers, they came back from 2 goals down against the Sabres to tie it up with under 2 minutes left, and they did it to the Flyers tonight by tying the game with less than a minute to go. They are young, clutch, have a young goaltender, and a good mix of veteran leadership and skill, and lots of speed. And, just like last year's Sabres, they have the same knack for starting games flat or starting slow only to turn it on in the clutch. Maybe they can execute and finish the deal that the Sabres could not do last year. As for the Avs-Wings game, I liked how Colorado bounced back after giving up 4 early goals and make a game out of it. They pull Theodore for Budaj and then they get back in the game and score two goals to get it to 4-3. Osgood made a brilliant save on Liles at the end of the game that won it for Detroit. Colorado played well without Forsberg. Looks like a fun series.

They said during the broadcast that Theodore was sick and left the game and building after the 4th goal...I guess he didn't skate in the morning skate either...Budaj played pretty good in his absence, so if Theodore gets his game back and Forsberg comes back soon - that series could get interesting.
